On the latest episode of Skip Bayless‘ FS1 show ‘Undisputed,’ Dallas Cowboys legend and Hall of Fame wide receiver Michael Irvin was speaking with Bayless about controversial NBA player Ja Morant, who has seemingly been wasting away his talent by getting into back-to-back legal trouble with guns and slapping the faces of those who have believed in and supported him as he made his way to the NBA.
While offering his thoughts on Morant, Irvin made a comparison with his own son, whose birth name is Elijah but raps under the moniker Tut Tarantino. According to Irvin, his rapper son raps about a life that he hasn’t quite lived; so, he called him out and reminded him exactly how he grew up his entire childhood — “in a gated community.”

In a clip going viral from the ‘Undisputed‘ episode, Michael Irvin says, “I got a son. He raps. His rap name is Tut Tarantino.” He added, “If you ever listen to some of his raps. I’m like, ‘Oh my god.’ Where does this come from, son? You grew up in a gated community your whole life. But he’s rapping my life. Because we romanticize and fantasize about that old ‘thug life,’ ‘ghetto life,’ and all of that stuff. When we used to work to get away from. Now, we’ve gotten to a place somehow where we’re running back towards it. In the music, in everything.”
The former Cowboys player continued, “In the days I was coming up, all of those guys that you see that Ja Morant’s hanging around, those guys were still around us [too], but they were like, ‘Get out of here. Stop doing this. You’ve got a chance to make it out of here the right way.’ So those guys would try to tell you to stop being in these neighborhoods, stop hanging out, and go do what you have to do. But, it’s not like that now. The guys are more hanging on and want to go with guys… And they’re tearing up careers.”

Now, this isn’t the first time that Michael Irvin has publicly expressed his sentiments recently shared. During an appearance on the ‘Dan Patrick Show‘ back in 2019, Irvin was confused about his son’s rap career, and he called him out for flaunting a fake persona then.
At the time, the former Cowboys player said, “He raps about some of the hardest stuff in the world. I say to him, ‘Son, you grew up in a 20,000 square foot. gated community! Where does this stuff come from?’ I worked hard to get you out of this, and you’re rapping right back to it. What is going on? It blows my mind!”
